    Manatee 52 Lakewood Ranch 6 Final

    That was the problem on the varsity level Green's first season. With very little support from administration there were no positions at the school for him to hire assistants. Now the new administration has given him several teacher positions to hire coaches. Joe was very fortunate to have almost...

    Manatee 52 Lakewood Ranch 6 Final

    Good question...I think it the head coach. It so hard to get commitments from people since it's a volunteer job. Heidel I believe is on staff at Manatee. Some of them are ex-players. Some schools are having the JV and varsity practice together during individual period and then break up when they...

    Manatee 52 Lakewood Ranch 6 Final

    Yes he is and his staff is not doing a very good job with what they have! I guess that's the reason why you would be a JV coach and not a varsity?

    Manatee 52 Lakewood Ranch 6 Final

    Yeah, pretty bad! JV has terrible coaching, I mean terrible!! Talent is not the issue. Their freshmen class is very very good. Most of those starters on the team are freshmen. They have some big physical hollywogs up front that will get better on the next level. Manatee could be one hell of a...

    Manatee 52 Lakewood Ranch 6 Final

    Heidel had a pretty good night other than the two picks. One pick wasn't his fault. Other than that he was 16-19 260 yards and 2 TD's. Canes also rushed for around 200 yards between 5 different backs! This would have been over much earlier if it wasn't for the picks deep in Ranch territory. Big...

    Manatee 31 Port Charlotte 24 FINAL

    Manatee is a very good football team! I still think they haven't played to their potential. And for you to think they will only win 5 games this year tells me you know little about them! At there very worse maybe 7-3.....They have gotten better each year under Green! He was given a program that...

    Manatee 31 Port Charlotte 24 FINAL

    What a game! One of the best games I have witnessed in some time between two very good football teams! Conditioning did play into this. That is what you have to prepare for when you play poor team and don't get the in game reps. I was very impressed with Manatee's offensive line who went up...

    Manatee-46 Charlotte-7

    Defense played well. Offense is a work in progress. I think Green plays too many skill players. It's a nice problem to have but there seems to be no consistency or flow at times. QB Andrew Heidel has a very good arm and made several great throws for TD's. He has to continue to grow and improve...

    Manatee 27 Sarasota 14 FINAL

    Max is a good LB on a very good defense. He is not going to be relied on to make a lot of tackles. If Manatee's front four are doing their job you want see that! So far Manatee has not blitzed much so Max will drop back into coverage more. He has graded out well in all three games he has played...

    Manatee 27 Sarasota 14 FINAL

    I don't disagree that the MLB isn't meeting your expectations but let's look at a couple of things. One, your's suggestion to move #55 (Ean Johnson Kelley) to MLB isn't happening. The 265 pound DE is actually one of the best in the state and his stats prove it. Including the KOC, he's got 6...

    Manatee over Lake Minneola 46-27

    Good win for the Canes! Lake Minneola is going to win a lot of games this year! As for the stadium I thought it was average. I agree the seating was not great and the PA announcer was terrible! You get spoiled when you have a beautiful stadium like Manatee has! Defense will get better as year...

    Manatee 23 IMG White 17 Kickoff Classic Final

    Very competitive game. Good warm up for this weeks opener at Lake Minneola. Still some areas for improvement. Manatee not being able to practice outside much due to the FHSAA heat index rule showed in conditioning. Manatee will put the fastest team on the field top to bottom that they probably...

    MANATEE 42 SARASOTA 20 FINAL

    Could have, would have, should have! Second game of the season! A lot of young players finding their way. Manatee didn't play well in the first half. Bad angles and grabbing not tackling. Defense struggled in the first half. Second half was a totally different story. One thing that hurt Manatee...

    MANATEE 38 WIREGRASS 0 FINAL

    Again, they will be fine! They're young and will get better as they get more experience! You can find something with every team you watch at this time of the year. Everything is correctable!

    MANATEE 38 WIREGRASS 0 FINAL

    Manatee's offense will be fine! Tons of team speed and very athletic! There young and will get better each week! Keith McMahon has already done a great job with the OL. The new QB coach/Offensive co-coordinator Tripp Allen is lights out! Over 30 years coaching in Georgia. The difference will be...

    Miami Gulliver Prep vs Manatee

    Neither of the kids left the program due to coaching change. Samu has major family issues and was forced to go live with family in Texas. Allen would of been lucky to make it though the season because of behavioral issues.

    What's your over/under for number of wins for Manatee HS this year based on this schedule?

    Well, what's new! We again just don't seem to agree with each other! I think Green is going to do a good job and everybody that supports Manatee is excited! The kids love him and he has many many connections that is going to and has already helped. He is already filling out his coaching staff...

    What's your over/under for number of wins for Manatee HS this year based on this schedule?

    Its spring! Most of the teams will have a totally different look come fall. Look, Manatee has a lot of work to do and improving to do no doubt!! Green said he was going to play everyone who practiced and he did. Green also had to put together a staff and the kids were going through a coaching...

    More changes at Manatee

    Many would like to see Chris Peters get the AD job. He was Manatee's long time trainer and is still teaching at the school. That's who they are pushing to take it over! As for Green getting the job. The kids love him and will work hard for him. He was the best interview by far of all the...
